The U1 is still to >big to fit any 15cm suite pocket. I don't worry about pockets. My pockets are already full of stuff like tools and there is no room for a computer. The Libretto (and the U1) fit nicely in a case the size of a dayplanner. I just carry it around in my hand or throw it into luggage. Its either that or a briefcase and briefcases are a pain. I basically replaced a HP 200LX with the Libretto. The 200LX fit in my pcket once I displaced enough stuff but its not very mobil. I couldn't run wireless modems and had a hard time with cellular modems. The libretto handles both. Plus the libretto can run a web browser that handles https. I can also run programming software that requires Windows and a 486 or better. It was nice when I could do all my programming with a terminal program (the 200LX worked for that) but then I ran into a situation where just the software itself required windows 95 and a 486 at least. I figure with a pentium mmx and Win98 I'm safe for years to come. With the Libretto in standby its almost like instant on so it comes close to a pda if I need to use it for that. Which is pretty rare- the day I can't remember a phone number or what's in a database is the day I might as well give it up. Would be great if I could find some 3000 mAh 3.6 V li-ion cells to rebuild the standard battery pack with though.
